Is that a laptop or a desktop or a pc in superposition?

solid ether
#

It seems like a laptop folded and put on a stand to try to identify as a pc

#

thats so cursed

#

like I would remove the keyboard at leas

Specifically a 15 in MacBook Pro

It's me

#

I did it

bold lake
#

oh

#

a honour to seek the opinion of the owner himselg

median palm
#

And I did it because the laptop is not repairable

#

what was the issue?

median palm
#

The computer suffered liquid damage so not only is the current keyboard busted but if you try to connect another one it doesn't work

#

The keyboard isn't removable either it's riveted into the shell

#

I basically cobbled This Together from stuff I pulled out of e-waste

#

ic ic

#

if I was in your place I would stick an external keyboard on it

median palm
#

Not good enough

#

Because the power button doesn't work either

bold lake
#

not trying to belittle or sound rude to you

#

because it looks cursed lol

#

The battery was also extremely bloated so that's been removed

bold lake
bold lake
#

so you plugged it in direct to ac?

#

and made an external power button?

median palm
#

Yep

bold lake
#

that sounds costly

median palm
#

Well there is no power button

bold lake

#

I have spent $0 on this

bold lake
#

so you must be a genius then lol makes sense

median palm
#

That's also why I didn't put a battery back in it

#

If a Mac runs completely out of power and you plug it in it automatically turns itself on

#

So by never putting a battery back in it all I have to do is temporarily disconnect and reconnect the power cord

bold lake
#

aaah

#

genius

#

I never owned a mac too scared of it

#

You can pick up a unibody Mac from around 2012 through 2008

#

And they are a lot more repairable

#

You can replace the RAM and the storage and several other parts

bold lake
#

even many windows laptop are unrepairable

#

Yes it's really sad

bold lake
#

had to throw my Asus laptop out cuz they fused the ram with mother board

#

and my laptop's ram only got spoiled
